{الفكر القومي العربي} Egypt today

As every one knows by now Egypt security situation has deteriorated  to the lowest level  since the revolution. The majority of people are concerned, worried, depressed and many of them either left Egypt for fear about their families safety  or to sustain their life style, and there are those who are looking to escape the misery of living in Egypt as it stands..
The Military Supreme Council had it all , the control over the government, the internal security, people's dreams for a better Egypt and The United States and The  Saudi Support.
Instead of taking advantage of the situation, planning to transfer Egypt  into a modern civil society , SCAF gambled and lost not just the opportunity but the war and the battle.
SCAF gambled that if they just create a little bet of chaos , controlled trouble , they may be able to stay influencing the political situation in Egypt and they will be able to keep a lion's share of the economy and privileges which they have accumulated over the years.
While SCAF staged the scrimmage from Abassia, Portsaid, Masspero Tahreer and back to Abassia they did not calculate the hidden power of the political ambition of  Saudi Arabia in concurring  Egypt , the Jewel of the Arab world.
Saudis Wahabi and Salafeis who have been in the closet for years , now with fresh funds , have been emboldened to come out even dressed like Saudies sitting in an Egyptian formal meeting ?
SCAF thought that they can be in control of the chaos which they have created, The United States of America closed their  eyes, thinking it might be easier to deal with a weaker Egypt, and Saudi Arabia would like to keep democracy away from their home land.
Saudi Arabia now may realize that it received more that it bargained  for , as the hate directed toward the kingdom is mounting louder than it ever was.
The United States antenna is now on most alert as a defector to Mr. Alzwahri in the picture, the US has enough trouble with Alkada in Yemen, Pakistan and Aphganistan, so now are they going to fly and kill targets in Egypt ? Would SCAF give them permission to do that ?
By the way, the US does not take permission to protect their own interest as announced by President Barrack Obama, also US has air space privilege over Egypt.
How about the Muslim Brother hood ? Did they get what they bargained for ? Majority of Maglas Elshab and Maglas Elshora and nothing to show for , not only that their popularity has gone down drastically, but also the prestige they hoped for has been diminished..
The Salafeis and their extreme views have never been liked and now every one can see their favorite methods of violence which does not suit Egypt 's taste.
Remaining the old regime and all who benefited from it, they dealt with SCAF to secure their position but now even they  are going to loose a great deal from devalue their assets and the Egyptian pound which has to happen very soon.
Did any one win from SCAF's plan ? Unfortunately even SCAF lost all their cards, the war and the battle and they will suffer from their horrible failed plan   for years to come just like they suffered from the complacency and humiliation in 1967.
If miracles are not possible to save Egypt at this time, for sure it is not going to be any of the power mentioned above, I still will place my bet on the youth of our country but unfortunately it is going to be with more of their blood and scarifies.
Democracy for Egypt. Samia Harris
